A method for producing granules that contain at least one active ingredient and are stable at ambient temperature, includes successively: (1) preparing a matrix free of an active ingredient by mixing, without the addition of water, an encapsulation vehicle for the active ingredient and a non-aqueous plasticiser compatible with the vehicle and the active ingredient, the encapsulation vehicle and the plasticiser being present in amounts that give the matrix a glass transition temperature higher than the ambient temperature; (2) heating the matrix in an extruder to an extrusion temperature to produce an amorphous melt matrix; (3) injecting the active ingredient into the melt matrix; (4) extruding the melt mass including the active ingredient through a die and cutting granules at an exit point of the die.
